So, let's unwind this a little.

1. You had blown fuse. Replaced it, and the relay. New fuse remains good.

2. ???

3. Profit?

But seriously, is the pump running? If it is not running, is it at least getting power onto its wiring when it is supposed to? What tests have you done? Listen for pump? Multimeter on the power wire? Fuel pressure gauge?

If we presume that it is not running, having failed any or all of the above tests, that would explain why you're trying to pull it out, yeah? So at what point in the process of pulling it out are you having trouble? Have you unscrewed the clamp ring? IS the plastic hat just stuck on its seat/o-ring?

Cant get fuel pump or float mechanism to release. need help pse.

Can you expand on this? If the fuse blew then there is a fault that needs further troubleshooting. A relay is highly unlikely to blow the fuse.

And you don't want your float mechanism....it has f#ck all to do with any issue you have.

If you are trying to get your fuel pump out I suggest you have a look in the tutorial section of the forum....quite a few good people have contributed threads on this sort of topic.

 

Here's one:

Just check if your pump is working, i had the same problem, easiest way to check is find your fuel filter follow it to your engine, disconnect thr hose, get some rags around, and try to start your car, if fuel piss out then you know your pump is working, if nothing comes out then you know its your pump

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
